A survey of 1,075 people by retailmenot.com found that cash, checks and gift cards remain popular choices, cited as preferred by half the respondents. On average, respondents say $165 is an appropriate cash gift for high-school graduates, while $464 is good for someone earning a bachelor's degree. If your friend or relative just attained a graduate degree, plan on shelling out about $772. Those figures are averages, not round numbers.
According to the newspaper, the Make College Count website also stated that those who are related to the graduate should plan to give between $20 and $50 as a gift. When it comes to deciding whether to give money or a gift to the high school graduate, it is best to consider the graduate's personality and preferences.
